Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup (150 grams / 5.3 oz) brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup (115 grams / 4 oz) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup (125 grams / 4.4 oz) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (90 grams / 3.2 oz) white chocolate chips
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup (30 grams / 1 oz) chopped nuts (optional, for crunch)
Instructions
- Preheat Setup: Warm the oven to 350F (175C) and line an 8×8-inch (20x20cm) pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with butter.
- Wet Mixture Fusion: Whisk melted butter with brown sugar until smooth, then blend in egg and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined, creating a rich, homogeneous base.
- Dry Ingredient Integration: Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into the wet mixture, folding gently to maintain a delicate texture without overmixing.
- Flavor Enhancement: Incorporate white chocolate chips and nuts throughout the batter, ensuring even distribution for a balanced taste and texture.
- Baking Preparation: Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan, sprinkle additional white chocolate chips on top for a decorative and flavor-boosting finish.
- Oven Transformation: Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges turn golden brown and the center sets, creating a perfect balance of crisp exterior and soft interior.
- Cooling and Serving: Allow blondies to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then slice into squares and serve at room temperature for ultimate indulgence.
Notes
- Prevent Overmixing: Gently fold dry ingredients into wet mixture to avoid developing tough gluten, which can make blondies dense and chewy instead of tender.
- Control Chocolate Distribution: Lightly coat white chocolate chips in flour before adding to batter to prevent sinking and ensure even spread throughout the blondies.
- Monitor Baking Time Carefully: Check blondies at 20 minutes to avoid overbaking; look for golden edges and a slightly soft center for the perfect moist texture.
- Customize for Dietary Needs: Substitute gluten-free flour blend for all-purpose flour, use dairy-free butter alternative, and choose vegan white chocolate chips to make the recipe allergen-friendly.
